Multidimensional Dress Rehearsal

We are all actors dressed in thoughts and emotions. As actors, we perform a specific role. That role is an expression of the soul. In fact, the soul is performing along with us. Being human is our stage and the various soul-filled actors that perform on this stage at any particular moment act in various ways in order to feel the results of their unique thoughts and emotions. This human stage is like an off-Broadway play. The actors are practicing for a spot on Broadway. The Broadway we seek is different for each actor. The events that happen on our human stage are not things that happen to us. They are materialized experiences created by us. These experiences are formed by our individual expectations, perceptions, and beliefs.

Thoughts and emotions create beliefs if we focus on them long enough. Our human experience is an epic drama filled with various beliefs that can cause conflicts. How we handle those conflicts is the plot of the drama. We produce the plot, and our role is to feel how we control the emotions and thoughts that created the beliefs that caused the conflicts. Each plot is the essence of the drama, but not all plots are the same. Each plot and actor are more than the sum of all the plots and actors.

The human stage has a main drama going on, but at the same time, there are individual dramas taking place that create the experiences that each soul-filled actor needs to experience. We don’t believe we create these individual dramas on our own, so we create a man-like God that fills those shoes. We don’t believe that this man-like God is within all of us, and that is cause for conflict.

As actors, we believe we all must conform to the mass drama in order to achieve the blessing of the man-like God that has already blessed our drama. The soul knows the value of conformity as well as separatism. Those judgments are ego generated beliefs. But the actors believe those beliefs are the characteristics of a man-like God not the ego. This separation of thoughts and emotions is the basis for this dress rehearsal and learning process. The opportunity to experience and sense this man-like God within us lies in our ability to understand what we create. When we do, we can accept our human stage as a multidimensional dress rehearsal where all beliefs contain elements of truth, and all truths contain elements of our mass drama.
